4-slaapkamerwoning met tuin, Mechelen

Hidden behind an elegant façade in the historic centre of Mechelen lies an exceptional townhouse where centuries of architectural history come together. Although officially dating from 1830, the steep rear façade, structural layout and numerous original features suggest origins reaching back to the 16th century. The property has been meticulously restored by renowned architects Blower, formerly Aerts + Blower, celebrated for their sensitive approach to heritage buildings. Natural stone floors, marble detailing, ornate cornices and the impressive exposed timber roof structure blend seamlessly with bespoke contemporary interiors and modern technology. Bright living areas flow effortlessly towards a private landscaped city garden with terraces and mature planting, creating a rare oasis of tranquillity. The kitchen forms the architectural heart of the home, while the upper floors offer an elegant principal suite, additional bedrooms and a versatile top floor beneath the historic roof, ideal as a studio, office or guest suite. Recent improvements include restored façades, renewed joinery, additional roof insulation, aluminium windows with high-performance glazing and a modern high-efficiency boiler. A rare opportunity combining heritage, outstanding architecture and contemporary comfort within walking distance of the city's finest amenities.
